My late aunt adored gnomes and would buy one for almost every occasion. She had a surplus of Christmas gnomes that her kids would snuggle with during the holidays. Her adoration of these little creatures rubbed off on me. Now, I have a few of my own. I ran into a whole other breed of gnome as I was looking to add to the family – wooden gnomes!

To me gnomes are the little watchers of the forest. It is only fitting to have some made out of wood! Wooden Christmas gnomes are going to give your home a jolly look!
There are so many DIY gnome kits on Etsy! The store Creative Gifts NI specifically has laser cut Nordic Christmas gnomes of various sizes. You can keep them plain or paint them however you would like. This is a great activity for the kids during Christmas Eve as they wait for Santa to arrive.
You can find other DIY gnomes at Otter Creek Sign Co! These ones come with paints, woodblocks, and even a fuzzy beard attachment. I remember loving woodcraft projects as a kid!
If you don’t want to do a bunch of work and just want to decorate this little gnome is perfect. At Olde World Carvings there are all sorts of forest gnomes to choose from. I enjoy the holiday gnomes since they look like little versions of Santa Claus.
The ultimate gnome store is Whole Lotta Gypsy on Etsy. There are wooden carved gnomes and classic plush gnomes. They come in all kinds of shapes and sizes! It’s the perfect addition to any holiday theme that you are going for.
I fell in love with Cedarwood Lane’s wood gnomes right away. I enjoy how fun and whimsical each forest gnome looks. In particular, these triangular gnomes are to die for. Putting them on your mantle is an easy way to decorate for Christmas!
I have a lot of plush gnomes around the house, but Wooden Christmas gnomes would be such a cute addition! These little guys will bring a little magic to your Christmas.
